Pete's Pond, Mashatu Game Reserve, Botswana July 2008

Pete's Pond is on the Mashatu Game Reserve in the Tuli Block region of Botswana. This is where the live Wildcam Africa web camera, sponsored by National Geographic is located. There is a hide overlooking the Pond where the webcam is stationed and manned by Afke and various volunteers.

How do I join the Pete's Pond' forum? They have accepted my id, & "openID" but not my password. I've tried different versions but have been unsuccessful. Any help ????

Fantastic photos, it is so great to see people that we "know" but have never seen. And such fun to see places we haven't seen either, like the tent behind the hide. It is wonderful of you to share them with the rest of us. Thank you so much!
